SUMMARY:Independent Presence Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition\nIndependent Presence\, an exhibition bringing the mystery\, nature and narrative themes of six independent artists\, delivers the power of presence through work ranging from pinhole cameras and darkroom alchemy to digital capture. Each artist\, with her own style and vision\, shares a connection\, linked together through Salon Jane. \nThese innovative artists escape the deep-rooted West Coast tradition of straight photography to transcend the ordinary by creating work that captures their essence. Through their relationship in the safe and supportive environment of Salon Jane\, each artist seeks to expand her creativity\, experiment with artistic ideas\, and receive honest feedback to push the boundaries of their craft so they can continue to innovate in an already over-saturated discipline. \n\nArtist Talk in the Gallery\nAn Artist Talk precedes the opening reception giving us the opportunity to hear from these accomplished artists as they discuss their work and background\, creative processes\, and the connection that brings them together through Salon Jane. You can expect an engaging discussion offering insights to their individual work and the synergy generated through their commitment to supporting each other’s creative growth. \nArtists of Salon Jane – Robin V. Robinson\, Jane Olin\, Robin Ward\, Martha Casanave\, Susan Hyde Greene\, Anna Rheim \n \n\nSui Generis\nThe avant-garde rock ‘n roll diva\, Nina Hagen\, said it most clearly: “I know who I am and I am willing to declare myself.” To declare yourself you must first find your place in the world – a physical place\, a technical place\, a psychological spiritual emotional place – a place from which you can do the work you are meant to do. Without such a place it is difficult to speak authentically on the issues you mean to address. \nThe artists in this exhibition have found their place by the whole variety of means that artists use to decide who they are\, but particularly by extracting themselves from the embrace of two photographic traditions that have become oppressive (West Coast landscape photography and conceptual photography) thereby freeing their intuitions to guide them towards the work they truly need to do. The resulting work belongs to no school of photography but is rather more sui generis – it generates itself out of intuition\, out of perception\, out of spiritual emotional and psychological relationships with the subject matter\, and out of an intimate but lighthearted relationship with photography’s notorious technical side\, all to the effect that these artists know who they are and are willing to declare themselves. \n– David Bayles\nCo-author of the well-known book Art & Fear: Observations on the Perils (and Rewards) of Artmaking \n\n \nWest Coast Focus – E6 – Pushing the Wet Darkroom from Steve Zmak on Vimeo. \n\nArtist Bios\nMartha Casanave has been a working\, exhibiting\, and award-winning photographer and educator for 40 years.
